Without using the legendary fast train Prague – Opava, which is sung about in a Czech song, I managed to get to the meeting with the teachers from Střední škola hotelnictví a služeb a Vyšší odborná škola in Opava in time. I was awaited by the language teachers and deputy headmaster for VOŠ, who were interested by the flyer for our project “Language skills and intercultural issues in hospitality industry” and asked me for more detailed information.
In my lecture I introduced the target groups and objectives of the project. After that I showed the e-learning platform with its exercises and functions including the smartphone applications. I stressed that during the project period the platform will expand quantitatively and qualitatively. The new exercises, which will be created in compliance with the principles of blended learning, case studies and interactivity, will be added. The end of the seminar was devoted to the questions about the platform, but also to the exchange of experience about the European and national projects our schools have been involved in. The deputy headmaster of the Opava School presented me their OPVK project on the modules for distant study.
I hope that the meeting with the Opava colleagues, who were very nice and attentive audience, was not the last one. I will be very glad if we see each other at the multiplier event taken place at our school in the spring 2018 where I invited them.
